Hi mozart,
It's a carousel at House on the Rock, Wisconsin. It looks like it would be a really interesting place to visit.

"...must-see is the World's Largest Carousel (the phrase "largest in the world" shows up frequently in descriptions of Jordan's collections). It has more than 20,000 lights and 269 handcrafted carousel animals, though no horses. The carousel is 35 feet tall and 80 feet wide, weighs 35 tons and is said to be worth $4.5 million. "

The Courier-Journal

Now this is interesting, because on reading the above link again, it says the carousel has 269 animals, and Wikipedia gives the same number. But I think we mean the same place?
